INTRODUCTORY 



The history, of Cartomancy, or card-reading, 
dates back to a time so remote and obscure thai 
it has no authentic beginning". So far as can be 
learned, all of the earlier forms of cards were 
used solely for such purpose, or for instruction. 

They were introduced into European countries 
by wandering tribes of Gypsies, who are sup- 
posed to be lineal descendants of Egyptian 
races, and who were, and still are, noted as 
card readers. The cards originally used by them 
were what is known as Tarot Cards, having but 
little resemblance to the modern playing cards. 

In India, Persia, China and other Oriental 
countries, traces are found of cards which at a 
very early date were used for divination and 
instruction.* 

Prom the Tarot Cards, however, have been de- 
rived the modern playing cards. The number of 
cards in the pack have been reduced, and the 
symbols and methods of use have also been 
materially changed. 

The Tarot Cards were primarily adapted and 
used for cartomancy, and only incidentally for 
games; whereas the modern cards are adapted 
and used mainly for games, and only incident- 
ally for cartomancy; the use for instruction hav- 
ing wholly disappeared. 

J. C. Hotten in History of Playing Cards says: 

"To ourselves, cards serve as a mere pastime; 
but their Asiatic inventors had a far different 
object in view, aiming rather at a means of 
instruction and consolation than of amusement 
and recreation." 

Cartomancy is still largely practiced, usually 
for amusement only, but very often there will 
be startling surprises due to accuracy of re- 
sults. By what law this is accomplished, no 
one in our day has yet discovered. In departing 
from the earlier symbols and methods of the 

*See Facts and Speculations on the Origin and 
History of Playing Cards— W. A. Chatto, Lon- 
don, 1843; also History of Playing Cards, etc.— 
J. C. Hotten, London, 1865. 



Orientals, who can say how much of knowledge 
and of ability to produce results has been lost 
to us? Obviously, enough remains to excite 
curiosity, and to make it appear worth while to 
investigate further. May not these ancients 
who treated the matter more seriously, have 
been in possession of knowledge concerning 
laws governing the apparently accidental com- 
binations of symbols, and of methods of manip- 
ulation and reading that we know not of and 
superior to our own? 

In the PAHLAVI system is provided devices 
and methods broader and more comprehensive 
than those in common use. In this system the 
cards have great diversity of meaning and 
embrace nearly every phase of life from the 
highest to the lowest, so that the reader will 
with practice be able to give a reading with as 
great accuracy and detail as is now possible in 
cartomancy. When more than one meaning is 
given the reader is free to choose that which is 
best adapted to the other features of the 
reading. 

* We have given a sample reading, which if 
carefully studied will enable anyone to under- 
stand the method. While absolute correctness 
in all respects may not be attained, with a lit- 
tle practice one may make such readings (which 
are now quite popular) very interesting and 
entertaining, and their accuracy will very often 
be quite surprising, as well. As a rule one can 
do better for a comparative stranger rather 
than for an acquaintance of whose affairs the 
reader has knowledge. 

Before attempting to learn to give readings, 
lay out the cards in the order given in inset and 
read them carefully according to the sample 
reading, as an illustration; also refer to the 
meanings of these cards as given from page 
13 to 64.

mvi lvanivN oi 



The Yellow, Blue and Red Spheres, the Ten of 
Yellow, and the Eight, Nine and Ten of Black 
are not changed in quality or meaning by any 
other card or cards, but they are of such power 
that they change the meaning of all other cards 
located below them, or near them, as the case 
may be as hereafter explained. 



THE SPREAD 



The cards are first thoroughly shuffled, placed 
face downward on the table and separated suffi- 
ciently so that the back of each card can be at 
least partially seen. This had better be done 
by the reader, it being- only necessary that 
every card be in sight, and no one able to tell 
one card from another. 

The Inquirer will now mentally "make a 
wish" and then proceed to pick up the cards 
one at a time as fancy or impulse may suggest, 
and place one upon the other, face downward, 
in a single pile. Do not hurry; follow any 
mental impression, or let the hand move freely, 
without any particular effort to direct it. This 
is the important part of the process and deter- 
mines what the reading will be. 

The Reader now takes the cards, and holding 
them face downward, begins with the top card 
and spreads them on the table face upward, 
one at a time, in a square of nine cards in each 
row, counting from right to left, and six rows 
counting from the top downward. The top card 
of the pile is laid first, and at the upper right 
hand corner of the spread. The next card is 
placed at its left, and so on until there are nine 
cards forming the top row. The tenth card is 
laid directly below the first, and the second row 
is now laid from right to left in like manner, 
and so on until all of the cards are laid on the 
table face up. They are now ready to be read. 
The reader must be informed whether the 
Inquirer is married or single, and if absent, 
the age and sex. 



THE READING 



The Inquirer 

The reader will first note the cards surround- 
ing the card which represents the Inquirer 
(Apollo, if a male; and Diana, if a female.) If 
the cards are of high power, or strong cards, 
the life will be strongly marked in whatever 
respect indicated by the color, quality and 
meaning of such cards; and if of lower power, 
the life will be more commonplace. Next read 



the cards indicating- the Past, and then the row- 
in which the card representing the Inquirer i& 
located, reading from right to left and including 
the card directly above the Inquirer as a part 
of the row. 

The Companion 

In like manner read the row in which the cam 
representing the companion is found (Apollo or 
Diana, as the case may be.) If both the Com- 
panion and the Inquirer are found in the same 
row' it denotes a close relation and joint interest 
in every matter indicated by the cards of the 
rowv and they read to both alike, except the carci 
above each, which relates more particularly to 
that one alone. If Apollo or Diana is found in 
the top row it indicates a person of independ- 
ence of character or circumstances, or both. 

The Home 

The row in which the Home is found is read 
tog-ether with the card above the Home. If the 
Home is in the row w T ith either Apollo or Diana 
the card directly above the Home is the only 
one that is read as relating directly to the 
Home. 

The Past 

Is indicated by the cards at each side of and 
above the Nine of Black and their ruling and 
qualifying cards, unless the Nine of Black fall 
in the row with the Home, Inquirer or Com- 
panion, in which event only the cards above it 
are read as relating to the Past. 

The Future 

Is indicated in the same manner as the Pasr 
by the cards near the Eight of Black, and read 
in the same way. 

The Wish 

Is answered by the four cards next the four 
sides of the Nine of Yellow, and will be granted, 
delayed, realized in part, or denied, according 
to the significance of these four cards. All four 
cards have equal influence on the wish without 
regard to relative location, and are not ruled 
or qualified by other cards. 



10 



THE SEPARATE CARDS 



Each card has several meanings, depending on 
its location relative to the other cards. The 
cards of fixed quality (the Yellow, Blue and Red 
Spheres, the Ten of Yellow and the Eight, Nine 
and Ten of Black) are not changed in meaning 
by the cards above them. All others may be 
more or less changed thereby. In reading a 
given card, the next card above it is called the 
RULER and acts according to its color to change 
or modify the meaning of the card being read, 
and may in turn be modified by the next card 
above. This second card above is called a 
QUALIFIER, and imparts its quality of Good, 
Neutral, or Evil to the RULER, and thus may 
overcome or change the effect of a RULER of 
a different quality. (See Inset.) 

If the QUALIFIER is a card of fixed quality, 
and of the same quality as the RULER, it will 
add strength to the RULER; but if the QUALI- 
FIER is a Neutral or Evil card, the RULER 
becomes Neutral or Evil, and thus loses more 
or less of the force due to its color or meaning. 
Of course the upper row of the spread has 
neither RULERS nor QUALIFIERS, and the 
cards in this row are read as if ruled and quali- 
fied by their own color and quality. The cards 
of the second row have RULERS which act on 
the cards below according to the color and with- 
out change of quality. By carefully studying 
the example, this will be fully understood. Any- 
one can read for himself, or herself, as well as 
for others. The following pages give the usual 
meanings of the several cards, as variously 
changed by position of RULER or QUALIFIER, 
or both. 

THE FOLLOWING RULES WILL BE 
OF USE IN READING 



1. In reading a card of fixed quality (the Yel- 
low, Blue and Red Spheres, the Ten of Yellow, 
and the Eight, Nine and Ten of Black) its mean- 
ing is not changed by the card or cards above 



>*c 



it, and its normal meaning, and its power over 
near cards are only to be considered. 

2. In reading- a card that can be changed in 
meaning, first note the next two cards above it, 
taking the color term (Yellow, Blue, Red or 
Black) from the RULER (the next card above), 
and the quality term (Good, Neutral or Evil) 
from the QUALIFIER (the second card above.) 

3. If only a RULER is above the card being- 
read, the RULER retains its own quality and 
color. 

4. If a card is in the top row so that no card 
is above it, it is ruled and qualified by its own 
color and quality. 

5. If either Apollo or Diana is in position of a 
RULER or QUALIFIER, the remaining RULER 
or QUALIFIER serves for both. If both Diana 
and Apollo are over a card, then the card is not 
ruled or qualified and is read the same as if in 
the top row. 

6. If a card of fixed quality is a RULER, then 
the card next above it has no qualifying effect. 

7. If the Past (Nine of Black) or the Future 
(Eight of Black) are in the row with Apollo, 
Diana, or the Home (House of Yellow) only the 
cards above it relate directly to it.

VARIOUS MEANINGS OF THE 
SEVERAL CARDS 




Apollo 

This card always represents the Inquirer it: 
the reading is for a gentleman; or if the reading 
is for a lady it represents the husband if she- 
is married, otherwise a lover or near male rela- 
tive. The row in which this card is founa. 
together with the cards above it, are read to it. 
It has no influence on other cards. 



13 




Diana 

This card always represents the Inquirer, if 
the reading is for a lady; and if the reading" is 
for a gentleman it represents the wife, if he is 
married, otherwise the sweetheart or near female 
relative. The row where this card is found, 
together with the cards above it, are read to it. 
If both Apollo and Diana are found in the same 
row the cards of the row relate to both alike 
and the cards above to each alone.

Can not be qualified. 

As a qualifier it strengthens good cards and 
qualifies those on all four sides. 



Above 



This is the best and strongest card of any. II 
found over the head of the Inquirer, or Com- 
panion, it indicates a bright future, showing a 
long life of happiness. 



Below 



If it should fall below the Inquirer or com- 
panion, it would indicate a clearing away of 
past troubles, either of ill health, loss of love, 
money, or bad fortune generally. 



Side 



If next the Inquirer, Companion or Home, on 
either side, it will overcome all bad influences. 
In the same line it means success in all that is 
good and right— justice will prevail— but it will 
never aid in anything false or dishonest. If 
next the wish on any side it will be granted.

ower—an old bachelor— or an old man. 



f The First word indicates the quality of the

The Home 

This represents the home of the Inquirer. If 
the Ten of Yellow is the first or second card 
above, it indicates a fortunate marriage— or a 
happy eld ag-e. 

All of the cards in the same row are read, as 
relating to the Home, together with the two 
cards above it. 

If the Home is found in the same row with 
the Inquirer or Companion, then only the two 
cards above it relate directly to the Home, and 
the rest cf the row reads to the Inquirer or 
Companion. 



TEN OF YELLOW

Fixed and Good 

This card cannot be qualified. 

This card in all cases shows gain by intelli- 
gence. It is also prophetic of happiness. It 
promises a most brilliant future— the best that 
the world can give, with love, health, and enough 
of wealth for contentment.

weather or good conditions— also escapes from 
accidents— or good from some source over which 
you have no control.

Neutral 

When ruled by Neutral cards, it means slow

denotes a lack of money— do not get in debt on 
a new venture.

When ruled by Good Black, it shows that past 
mistakes will be made right— return of reason- 
control of the appetites— reformation. 



Neutral 



If Neutral cards rule, it indicates weak con- 
ditions—lack of concentration— too many plans 
—it warns you to drop some lest you fail. 



Evil 



When ruled by Evil cards, it shows a poor 
memory, and if this card should lie next to 
the Three of Black on either side, it would show 
danger of weakening of the mental powers, 
through smoking, drinking, eating or other ex- 
cesses, and is a warning to stop before it is 
too late.

Good and Blue 

When Blue rules, there is general good health 
for some time to come, of both self and family 
—contentment. 

Good and Red 

When Red rules, it shows if one is ill, that

line is yours. 

Good and Black 

When ruled by Good Black, it shows recov- 
ery from illness of self or family, or more per-

When Evil cards rule, it denotes the severe 
sickness of some near friend— a disappoint- 
ment on account of poor health— warning to take 
care of your health before it is too late. When

the left, it indicates, if the Inquirer be a widow

Red card should be over their heads, they will 
have more wealth.

SAMPLE READING OF ACCOMPANYING 
SPREAD 



(See Inset in front of booklet for illustration) 

This reading is for a single man about 27 
years of age. 

We first note the cards that lay touching and 
near him. They do not indicate a person who 
would have a remarkable career, but as the 
Sphere of Yellow is in his line, he should be suc- 
cessful in whatever he undertakes; the more so 
that he has neither a ruler or qualifying card 
above him, thus denoting him to be of an inde- 
pendent nature. 

His Past (Eight of Black) we find in the fifth 
row from the top and sixth card in the row. 
In reading the Past, we read first the card 
touching it above, the Five of Black (Evil) ruled 
by the Sphere of Blue, which latter being a fixed 
good card, both rules and qualifies, and indicates 
that his former conditions were not nearly so 
good as at the present time. The next card 
is the one at the right of the Past. This is the 
House of Blue, ruled by the Three of Blue ; 
qualified by the Six of Red (Good), which indi- 
cates that he has made steady advancements 
from the first, and that he has studied Art in 
some of its forms. The card touching the Past 
on the left is the Four of Yellow. It is ruled 
by the Temple of Yellow, qualified by the Nine 
of Red (Good), which would indicate that he 
being a single man had been separated from 
friends, but is again with them; and also pre- 
dicts for the Future a prudent marriage. 

We now begin at the top row, which is read 
to the Inquirer (Apollo) and would indicate the 
near past, the present and the near future. This 
row being at the top of the spread has neither 
rulers or qualifiers. Each card is therefore read 
as if ruled and qualified by its own color and 
quality. 

The first card (the Unit of Red) is thus read 
as though qualified and ruled by itself (Good 
Red), showing that he has made good use of 



64 



his knowledge, is acquiring wealth by skillful 
means, and success follows his undertakings. 

The Three of Yellow (Good Yellow) indicates 
that he has been strongly attracted toward a 
lady to whom he has made love, and as the 
Sphere of Yellow lays at the left, would predict 
that his proposal had been accepted and that 
the engagement would end happily. 

The Sphere of Yellow also casts its influence 
on the next card in the row, w T hich is the Temple 
of Red, This represents a man who would be a 
great money maker, usually a banker, mer- 
chant, or some manufacturer. He is often diffi- 
cult to deal with, but as he is influenced by the 
Sphere of Yellow, he will be of great assistance 
to the inquirer and enable him to make a good 
living, as is shown by the next card, the Six of 
Yellow. 

The next card, the Nine of Yellow (Good Yel- 
low) denotes that he will have generally good 
conditions around him and be free from acci- 
dents. That he will be what is called a "for- 
tunate man." 

This card also represents, his wish and as it 
falls in his line, we will now read it. We note 
the cards around it and find that it touches the 
card Diana (his companion or sweetheart.) This 
would indicate that the wish concerned her, but 
we also find at the left an Evil Black card which 
denotes delays. However, as there is no card 
overhead and a good one touches at the right, 
we would predict that he would get his wish, 
but not as soon as he desired. 

The next card is the Two of Black (Evil), 
which shows that he will be affected in some 
way because of the delays of others. Things 
move too slowly to suit him. Perhaps the ar- 
rangements for his coming marriage is the 
delay of the wish, it being connected with the 
Diana (the companion) indicates it. 

The next card is Apollo (the Inquirer) and as 
there are no cards above, it shows him to be of 
an independent nature. 

The next and last card is the Four of Blue 
(Good Blue). This would give his occupation, 
which is probably a teacher of Art in some of 



65 



its forms, as it is indicated in the Past. He is 
also very fond of literature and a great reader. 

We now note his Future. The cards indicating 
it are near the Nine of Black, which card is 
found in the bottom row, and is the fifth card 
from the right. As this card falls in the same 
row as the Home (the House of Yellow) we 
conclude that it is more nearly connected with 
the Home, than with himself alone. We, there- 
fore, wait until the Home is read to find out its 
meaning-. 

The line containing Diana (the Companion) is 
next read. She is found in the second row from 
the top. This row has ruling cards, but no 
qualifying ones. Beginning at the right hand, 
the first card in the row is the Seven of Black 
ruled by the Unit of Red (Good Red). This 
gives promise of comfort and clearing away of 
difficulties and especially brings happiness to 
this lady. 

The next card is the Temple of Black ruled by 
the Three of Yellow (Good Yellow), which in 
this case indicates that she is a widow, or a lady, 
who has experienced a great deal of trouble in 
the past. 

The next card is the House of Red, ruled by 
the Sphere of Yellow, which latter is a strong 
card, clearing away sorrows and difficulties. 
This indicates that in the near future she will 
have better conditions about her, which will 
bring encouragement to herself and friends. 
This is shown by the Ten of Red ruled by the 
Red Temple (Good Red.) 

The next card is the Four of Black ruled by 
the Six of Yellow (Good Yellow.) This indicates 
that the lady is upright and honest, and that 
whatever troubles have come to her have been 
the fault of others. 

We now come to the card Diana (representing 
the lady herself.) The Nine of Yellow directly 
above her is read as being in the row. As this 
must qualify and rule itself, it gives her the 
same good conditions in the Future that will 
come to Apollo (the companion.) In addition 
we find that beneath the lady (Diana) is the 



66 






Sphere of Blue, a strong fixed good card, which 
in this position would indicate that honors or 
rewards will come to her late in life. 

The next card is the Eight of Blue, qualified 
and ruled by the Two of Black (Evil), which 
denotes that there will be some trouble with her 
friends or relatives, caused by misunderstand- 
ings. Also that in the Past there has been some 
hidden sorrow caused by blasted hopes, that 
will still affect her in some way. 

The next card is the Three of Red, which rules 
and qualifies itself, as Apollo is in the row 
above. This makes it ruled by Good Red, indi- 
cating that out of these misunderstandings 
would arise an event that would require the use 
of judgment, will and decision. 

But as the next card is the Two of Blue ruled 
by the Pour of Blue (Good Blue), it shows that 
while there is some outside trouble, there will 
be harmony in her own home; also that this 
lady may be and probably is a musician. 

We now pass to the row in which the Home 
(The House of Yellow) is located. This is in the 
last or bottom row. This row has both qualify- 
ing and ruling cards, and we will thus have the 
three rows to take note of. 

The first right hand card is the Seven of Blue 
ruled by the Sphere of Red, which latter being 
one of the strong fixed cards, cannot be qualified 
by the Evil Three of Black above it. This indi- 
cates that a large amount of money will come to 
the household of the Inquirer eventually through 
a satisfactory settlement of affairs. 

This settlement is shown by the next card, 
the eight of Yellow, ruled by the six of Blue, 
qualified by the nine of Blue (Good); so they 
are advised not to get discouraged. 

The next card is the Unit of Yellow, ruled by 
the Unit of Black, qualified by the Eight of 
Red (Good.) The Good Red above by its influ- 
ence will make this Evil Black Unit into a Good 
Black as a ruler, so we read that this couple 
will have but little attachment for their home, 
because of the long journeys they will be fond 
of taking. 

The next card, the Two of Yellow, ruled by the 
Seven of Yellow, qualified by the Ten of Blue 



67 



(Good) indicates an unexpected journey taken 
tog-ether, perhaps the wedding* trip as man and 
wife in the future. 

The next card represents the Future and being 
in the line of the Home, only the cards above 
read to the Future, which are the House of Blue, 
ruled by the Three of Blue, qualified by the 
Six of Red (Good.) This would indicate that 
there would be chances of advancement in the 
Future as in the Past, especially if interested in 
any kind of literary or art work. Perhaps a trip 
abroad. 

We find next the House of Yellow (which rep- 
resents the Home.) It has over it a neutral card 
(the Past.) This taken together with the previ- 
ous cards read from, would indicate that they 
would not have, for some time at least, any 
home of their own. 

In the next card the Four of Red, ruled by the 
Four of Yellow, qualified by the Temple of 
Yellow (Good), we find that they are given suc- 
cess, and also have the good opinion of those 
around them and later, honors. 

The next card is the Two of Red, ruled by the 
Temple of Blue, qualified by the Evil Six of 
Black, which makes the ruler into an Evil card, 
showing that after a while there comes to them 
losses, and that for some cause they are obliged 
to lay aside their work for a time. 

The next and last card to be read is the Five 
of Red, ruled by the Ten of Black, which being 
one of the cards of fixed quality for good, cannot 
be qualified by the Ten of Yellow. Thus we find 
that at the end, because of this over-ruling good, 
they will be preserved through afflictions, and 
that through the effects of a vacation, bringing 
change and fresh air, recover from probable ill 
health, and enjoy a happy life in years to come.
